Me: Hey! Did you know that Johnny Bee and Jim McCarty of Mitch Ryder's DETROIT WHEELS had a hard rock band in the 80's called the Rockets?
Martin Rocket (git/vox): You mentioned this to me before and I had never heard of them. I asked a few friends and one of them had an album by the (Detroit) Rockets. Now I got a record by them called "Turn Up The Radio." I found it 2nd hand in Copenhagen. I think it's cool music.
Me: The "Detroit sound" is a big influence right?
MR: You're right about that. The influences are sooo many but I think you can hear a bit of DETROIT CITY. "Search & Destroy" by the Stooges...The Alice Cooper Band is sooo COOL! "Be My Lover"...MAN! What a great song.
Me: AC/DC as well I'm guessing. What do you do to pay respects for Bon Scott?
MR: We play ROCK-N-ROLL!!!
Me: If there were no limits on how huge you amps could be what size would you go for?
MR: I think the size of KING KONG or GODZILLA would do just fine.
Me: Here's the question I really gotta ask...If I go to Sweden are all the girls going to be beautiful blondes with supple breasts?
MR: I think "Visit Sweden" is the answer to that. You see...We're right in the middle of it so we're BLINDED BY THE TITS.
Me: Some of the first porno I saw were "Swedish Erotica" titles. are you familiar with them?
MR: YES! You bet!
Me:So it's a country that takes pride in it's smut. Can you suggest a classic Swedish skinflick we all should look for.
MR: Well...If you really had to norrow it down I'd suggest "FABOJATAN." It's a very famous Swedish pornflick. It's best known for it's famous "Sausage Trick."
Me: Vice of chice?
MR: "FABOJATAN" of course.
Me: Do you keep rocking 24 Hours a day?
MR: Actually, Mike (bass player/thunder god) has a job...so it's only 23 HOUR ROCK!!!!
